Mrs. Hannah M. Moss was born Nov 17, 1834, near Georgetown, Vermillion Co., Ill. She died april the 3rd 1906 near Keystone, Pawnee Co, Okla., age 71 years 4 months and 17 days.
She united in marriage with John J. Moss on Feb 2nd 1858. To them were born ten children, six of whom died in infancy and two have passed away since reaching womanhood. She leaves a most faithful and devoted husband, one step daughter, and two own daughters to mourn her loss.
In early life she united with the Methodist Episcopal Church and was a faithful member of that organization until about twenty four years ago, when she was converted to the Seventh Day Sabbath faith and she united with the Church of God and remained a faithful and consistent worker and believer in that faith to the end.
She thought from the beginning of her illness that she was not to get well. She said that her work was done, and she was prepared to go. She had a strong and abiding faith, a pure and a clear conscience, and as in the words of Holy writ, she hath done what she could.
She was a kind and loving mother, thoughtful, and an affectionate wife. The funeral services were held in the school house at Keystone and conducted by John Willett, after which her remains were laid at rest in the Sinnett Cemetery, followed by friends and relatives. Brother Moss who survives his wife has the sympathy and love of all in this his dark hours.
